WHAT'S COMING: Indiana will be back in Big Ten action with a double header
tomorrow against Ohio State starting at 1 p.m. The Hoosiers will voyage
to Northwestern to play a double header on Sat., April 4 and a single game
on Sun., April 5. Both games will begin at 1 p.m.

ABOUT INDIANA: Indiana stands at 6-16-1. The Hoosiers were swept by No. 2
Michigan this past weekend. Senior Monica Armendarez leads the way with a
.357 batting average, three home runs, and 13 RBI. Head coach Diane
Stephenson enters her 11th season at the helm of the Hoosiers. She has
recorded a career record of 334-248-3. Julie Moss is in her fourth year
as an assistant coach, and Donna Bonebrake is starting her third year.

SCOUTING THE OPPONENTS: Entering the double header tomorrow, Ohio State
stands at 11-11-0 overall and 1-2 in the Big Ten. The Buckeyes took one
of three games from No. 20-ranked Minnesota to open Big Ten play. Katie
Wessendorf holds a .438 bating average, and Kristi Martin (3-2) leads the
team with a 2.51 ERA. For the Wildcats, they hold onto an overall record
of 18-9-0 and a Big Ten record of 2-1-0. Northwestern grabbed two out of
three games versus Purdue last weekend. Sophomore pitcher Jaclyn DeBoard
hangs onto a 0.95 ERA and won the Pitcher of the Week Award for her
performance against Purdue.

ARMED ARMENDAREZ: Monica Armendarez has picked up right where she left
off last season. Look for record to fall this season for the co-captain.
Last weekend with her 51st double, she became the career record holder in
doubles beating Michelle Venturella's mark of 50. Currently, she stands
at a tie with Venturella's career home run record of 28. The career runs
record is also in danger of breaking as she reached third place with a
total of 122 runs.

TRY TO CATCH HER: Junior Khara Good is perfect... in stolen bases this
season stealing 8-8. The 5-0 junior is Indiana's fastest athlete and has
just taken over seventh place on Indiana's all-time base stealers list
capturing 40 bases. Good is on-track to best her mark of 16 bases she
stole last season.

THRIFTY THEDFORD: In the open weekend of the Big Ten season, Junior Jaime
Thedford has been heard. Against Michigan, the first baseman had three
hits in eight tries giving her a Big Ten average of .375. Of those hits,
one was her first career home run.

NEXT UP: Following the games this week, the Hoosiers will head home for a
double header against Michigan State on Wed., April 8 at 1 p.m. They
